Canon CanoScan N670U

 

An easy-to-store scanner that produces accurate color tones at low resolutions, for a very affordable price.

works fine

Works great but this is a really old model by this time so it pays to get a newer model instead.

This scanner was shipped to me without an installation disk. I contacted the seller and requested a disk. The seller promised to mail the disk. A week went by. I again contacted the seller. The seller insisted that he had mailed the disk. ...

Canon CanoScan N670U Flatbed Scanner

 

My CanoScan has longevity

I've had my 670U since 2001, and it's given me great service. It takes up very little space(still slimmer than many contemporary scanners), still gives great imaging for a 6 year old scanner, and, with a recent driver update, WINDOWS VISTA COMPATIBLE!...

Cheap, Yet It Works Really Well!

 

We really didn't need another scanner. Sure, a few years ago I was scanning all the time -- I didn't have my digital camera yet, and I needed a way to get all of my son's snapshots onto his website so I could share ...

Thin and stylish, does a really good job at a cheap price.

There are faster scanners with higher dpi out there.Scan is slow at highest dpi. USB 1.1

Product Specifications

The CanoScan N670U scanner is a truly remarkable addition to your home or workplace. Its intelligent, state-of-the-art features save you time, and the unbelievable price can save you money. Its sleek styling looks great on any desktop. And the results you'll achieve are simply spectacular. At just over one inch high, the N670U scanner is one of the smallest flatbed scanners in the world. It's also one of the easiest to set up and use. Connect with just a single USB cable to any compatible Mac or PC - no power cord or bulky transformers are necessary. Then scan, copy or e-mail your images in just one step using the three convenient external buttons. You can even burn complete photos onto CDs with ease. So it's easier than ever to take advantage of this scanner's full capabilities: remarkable 48-bit and 600 x 1200 dpi resolution that gives you over 281-trillion possible colors for richer, more robust scans. The accompanying stand allows you to stand up the N670U scanner to make room on your desk, and still use it to scan at anytime. Canon's advanced Z-Lid Expansion Top will forever change the way you scan bulky items, such as books and magazines. Other scanner covers lift only at an angle and become uneven and awkward when scanning anything that isn't completely flat. The N670U scanner cover includes a special expansion hinge that lifts vertically and lays flat to create the space needed for bulky items, and to help ensure clear scans.
